This is like a guy showing up drunk at AA!!!
Everyone KNOWS Bush is back on the bottle!!!!
How disingenuous and disgusting the AmeriKan MSM is, readers!
"Bush Enlists Alcohol Past in New Cause"
BALTIMORE (Reuters) — President Bush reflected on his battle with alcohol abuse on Tuesday, acknowledging that he once drank too much.
Mr. Bush was trying to showcase the religion-based service programs that have been a heavily criticized initiative of his.
Mr. Bush, who gave up alcohol at 40, spoke on a visit to the Jericho program here. It is run by the Episcopal Community Services of Maryland, which helps released prisoners re-enter the workforce.
Why does the MSM lie to protect this man, readers? WTF?!
“Addiction is hard to overcome,” Mr. Bush said. “As you might remember, I drank too much at one time in my life.”
Snorted too much, too, I heard!
The president, who has often said religion became a greater part of his life after alcohol, added: “I understand faith-based programs. I understand that sometimes you can find the inspiration from a higher power to solve an addiction problem.”
Or to launch a mass-murdering war based on lies, right, shitter?
Religion-based programs like Jericho should not be forced to give up spiritual underpinnings to receive federal money, he said.
Critics oppose religion-based groups’ using taxpayers’ money, saying it blurs the line between religion and government.
Some supporters of the program have voiced concerns that Mr. Bush has not provided as much money as he promised. A study by the Rockefeller Institute found the number of religion-based organizations that received federal financing rose, to 762 in 2004 from 665 in 2002.
In his State of the Union address on Monday, Mr. Bush asked Congress to guarantee permanent financing for religion-based groups."
Yeah, he's areal pious and religious mass-murderer!
That's just great!
It's in both papers, too!
Trying to rehabilitate the drunken old mass-murdering war criminal, 'eh, Jew press?
"President says his faith helped him overcome alcohol 'addiction'" by Jennifer Loven, Associated Press | January 30, 2008
BALTIMORE - President Bush is talking more openly lately about his old drinking habit, and yesterday he offered perhaps his most pointed assessment yet by saying plainly that the term "addiction" had applied to him.
"Addiction is hard to overcome. As you might remember, I drank too much at one time in my life," Bush said during a visit to the Jericho Program, a project of Episcopal Community Services of Maryland that helps former prisoners deal with problems such as drug addiction so they can find jobs and reintegrate productively into society.
Bush spoke to reporters after meeting privately with two men who have graduated from Jericho's program and dealt with drug problems. During that session, which the White House allowed one reporter to attend, Bush spoke frankly about himself.
"I understand addiction, and I understand how a changed heart can help you deal with addiction," he told the two men. "There's some kind of commonality."
He asked Adolphus Mosely and Tom Boyd how they stopped using drugs - and then answered his own question.
"First is to recognize that there is a higher power," Bush said. "It helped me in my life. It helped me quit drinking."
And helped you start wars, too, 'eh, Georgie?
Fucking mass-murdering asshole!
"That's right, there is a higher power," Mosely said.
"Step One, right?" Bush said, referring to the Alcoholics Anonymous Twelve Steps program. Actually, it's the second step.
What a fucking ignoramus!
Yeah, tell me again he ain't boozing again!
He doesn't even know Step One, readers!!!!
Well, HE OUGHT TO if he's telling the truth!
Which Bush ONCE AGAIN is NOT!
Every damn word out of his mouth a fucking dirty lie!!!!!!!
When the president spoke publicly, flanked by both men, it was plain that it was a powerful subject for him personally. Bush grew unusually somber and fixed an unbroken gaze on the cameras as he related the similarities between himself and the men in this East Baltimore neighborhood who are struggling to put their lives back together.
"These are men who were, in some ways, lost and lonely and found love and redemption at Jericho," Bush said. "Proud to be with you."
He hailed them for now being "reunited with their daughters." "Girls love their dad, especially a redeemed dad," said Bush, father of 26-year-old twins Jenna and Barbara.
Yeah, what a great guy!
And how many innocent Iraqi and Afghani families and lives has this man destroyed based upon his shit lies, readers?
These articles are making me sick!
The 61-year-old president decided to quit drinking the day after a 40th-birthday celebration on July 6, 1986. He has often credited both his Christian faith and vigorous exercise with giving him the discipline he needed to execute that decision and to keep to it since, with nonalcoholic beers the only indulgence he says he allows.
Which STILL HAS ALCOHOL in it!!!!!
So HE'S BOOZING, folks!!!
And yet the MSM runs this SHIT LIE of a STORY?!?!
Case closed, readers: AmeriKa's MSM LIES ABOUT EVERY SINGLE THING!!!!!!
But when he was first running for president in 2000 and during his earlier years in office, Bush stuck to almost quaint code words when on the topic. He has never said publicly whether he was an alcoholic.
As was typical, Bush said during a November 2000 news conference in which he admitted pleading guilty in 1976 to drunken driving that he merely "occasionally drank too much" as a younger man. He told an interviewer that same year that alcohol "was beginning to compete for my affections" before he quit."
And the MSM just dropped the issue, just like that!
Pfffffftttt!
